Seeking help for an addiction can be hard. An addiction affects not only your body and mind but also your heart, spirit, family, friends, and vocation. Thank you for your courage in seeking help. As your counselor, I will work to support you in your recovery. This means holding you accountable to your goals. Addictions counseling involves treating the root causes of an addiction just as much as it does addictive behaviors.

Process addictions, such as pornography or sexual addiction, can destroy a marriage and family. The shame to the individual and the family can be worse than chemical addictions. But process addictions can be more difficult to understand. I can help you find healing from your spouse's addiction and learn how to set healthy boundaries and improve self-care. It is not your fault!

I've never met anyone who started using a substance because they wanted to be unable to live without it. Substance abuse and addiction start as a strategy. The strategy may be different for everyone but it begins to be THE strategy. The coping skill for unwanted emotions, for difficult times in our lives and even the way we celebrate the good times. Learning to experience life without substance is often hard in the beginning. As you grow into your new life you will have the power of choice that you may not have known you had in your addiction.

Addiction involves compulsive behavior that can gradually lead you to feel out of control with your life. Addiction comes in many forms and can include addiction to substances, people (love addiction), food, or work. Our approach is to help you manage unhelpful compulsive behaviors while also working on underlying causes. Often, this involves identifying and dealing with low self-esteem, anxiety, depression, or feelings of emptiness and inadequacy. The process of recovery helps you take control of your life, regain an identity of worth and value, develop healthy coping strategies, and manage difficult emotions.

I have worked with addictions for most of my career. Whether this is for you or a loved one, I would love the opportunity to help you. If you are early in your sobriety I will help guide you through this experience and keep you focused on what is safest and healthiest for you. If you have some sobriety under your belt, I will help you maintain your new healthy lifestyle to keep you on track. I am excited to help you take care of yourself.

Through personalized treatment plans, clients will benefit from a holistic approach that addresses physical, emotional, and psychological aspects of addiction. My goal is to empower clients to identify triggers, develop healthier coping mechanisms, and build a strong foundation for lasting recovery. Together, we will create a safe and supportive environment where clients can work towards sobriety, healing, and a renewed sense of purpose, ultimately leading to a life free from the constraints of addiction.

While most treatment approaches to addiction include 12 step programs, rehabs, and now sober living houses, Grey Matters International, Inc. provides a wildly successful alternative to traditional models of addiction treatment----that keeps the brain in mind. That is, talking to the conscious brain while the primal brain is deciding things even before you are consciously aware? Well, that is the problem to solve in addiction. We have the solution utilizing a new cutting edge neuroscience-centered brain rebalancing system. Contact kevin@kevinflemingphd.com or call 877-606-6161.

If you’re struggling with unhealthy habits or addictive behaviors, in some way it’s working for you. After all, they provide relief from stress and pain. But, if you’re reading this you also know that they aren’t a long-term solution. It’s common for successful men like yourself to use over-working, pornography, alcohol, technology, and emotional eating to cope with the stressful demands of life. As a Certified EMDR therapist, I won’t give you band-aid approaches to manage your stress or make you quit these behaviors. But if you’re actually ready for a change, I can help. Like an emotional surgeon, I'll help you identify the sources of your stress and pain, and heal them at the source.
